Starry Repetitions in QUILTER’S WORLD (Summer 2014)

Hello Friends! I hope you are well. I did return home safely after my whirlwind Spring Quilt Market adventure! I shall share a bit about that in a different post. For now, I am excited to share with you one of my newly featured magazine quilt, Starry Repetitions.

The fabrics I used are from Lynette Anderson‘s Quilters Garden collection, released this spring by RJR Fabrics. These fabrics aren’t foreign to this blog. If you recall, I had shared with you two free-to-used patterns (shown in the following) I had designed with the very same fabrics (click here and here). [The instructions for Towne Square are revised — please make sure you have the updated version.]

Towne Square

You will love these very sweet fabrics – be sure you check them out!

I think my favorite part about this quilt is the quilting! I quilted my “Blueberry Pie” motif — it is just a fancy application of pebbles — on the quilt. Quilting was done using Aurifil Mako 50 cotton threads over Hobbs Tuscany Silk batting.

I hope you have a lovely start to your week! I will be working on a couple of new projects this week in addition to finishing up a few things I started but didn’t complete before I left for Market.

Wow Wendy, You do some really amazing quilting…I love the Starry quilt too. Lynette Anderson has some lovely fabric and designs and she is such a lovely lady…. I met her on a few occasions when visiting her store.

I would really like to make the Towne Square quilt, colors are so soft. I note the “be sure to use the updated version” note. My question is how do I know I have the updated version? Thanks for your help.
